I had the extraordinary opportunity to help conceptualize and lead a video project for BC Marine Trails in late August / early September.

I am grateful to have set paddle to water in one of the most amazing… Read More

My images created in the territory during this time lead to publications in BC Magazine and National Geographic Traveler U.K. You get what you give and you… Read More
